Yang Li was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Lin Xuan to be so bold, he didn't hesitate at all, and directly chose to face it head-on.

The song "It's Dawn" was sung by Song Yan, of course he hopes that the sales of the song can be higher, and the better the results, it will also boost Song Yan's career.

After two seconds of silence, Yang Li persuaded again:

"Mr. Lin, I am also confident in the quality of your songs, it is true that the three songs you created have been exposed enough, but Cai Fan's brainless fans are indeed crazy, and fighting Cai Fan head-on will more or less have a certain impact on sales. Rather than that, it's better to avoid the limelight. ”

Lin Xuan shook his head and said:

"It is true that there will be some impact, but I believe that the impact will not be very large, since this is the case, I will touch Cai Fan, let's take a look. In the end, the work is important or the character is important. ”

For him, the popularity of these songs is there, and even if the sales are hit a little, he will definitely make a lot of money.

Since he can make money no matter what, he is willing to touch Cai Fan.

For Lin Xuan, of course, he unswervingly believes that the work comes first, so he is willing to take a little risk to prove it.

Even if he fails, it's nothing, and he is willing to sacrifice that little benefit.

Lin Xuan worked hard to pursue his music dream in his last life, and he was deeply moved by those great records, he believed in the power of good music, and he still had a bit of a literary and artistic youth twisted in his bones.

His choice is actually not unusual.

In his last life, Jia Zhangke's "The Good Man of the Three Gorges" won the Venice Golden Lion Award, and the export rights abroad have been profitable.

Without too much pressure at the box office, Jia Zhangke made a very individual choice, so that "The Good Man of the Three Gorges" and Zhang Yimou's "The City Full of Golden Armor" were released on the same day.

In the original words of the section chief, I just want to see how many people care about good people in this era when everyone is chasing gold.

Lin Xuan's choice is the same, in this era of fan economy, people are superstitious about traffic, and he wants to see if good works can hit the sky!

Of course, compared with the section chief, who is very literate and young, and the ending is already doomed, Lin Xuan feels that he is still a little sure that he can wrestle with Cai Fan.

On the other end of the phone, Yang Li touched his chin, sighed softly, and said, "Teacher Lin, since you have said so, then I won't say more."

As the general manager of Popular Records, I have experienced the golden age of the music scene all the way, and witnessed those periods when good records were constantly emerging.

After the Internet reached its heyday, it can now be said to be the most chaotic period in the music industry, saliva songs are overflowing, traffic singers seem to sell music, but they are actually selling people, but they can still dominate the list, a miasma.

For me personally, of course, I can't get used to it, but I feel a little helpless.

If you can succeed in the confrontation with Cai Fan this time, it will undoubtedly inject a shot of strength into those who make music silently and seriously.

I very much hope that these songs of yours can be a great success, and I believe that not only me, but all the musicians who are serious about music and want Chinese music to be on the right track, I hope that you can succeed and prove that good works are the most important thing. ”

Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said:

"Mr. Yang is serious, according to what you say, the burden on my shoulders is so heavy, I don't think about it so much, I just want to prove the value of music as a musician. ”

The two chatted a few more words, and then hung up the phone directly.

It didn't take long for the person in charge of Penguin Music to call.

said the same thing, saying that Cai Fan also chose to release an album on the 15th, meaning that Lin Xuan wanted to adjust the launch date a little later, but Lin Xuan did not agree.

After that, the person in charge of Penguin Music said that No. 15 would definitely give Cai Fan the best recommendation position on the website, and could only give Lin Xuan the second-class recommendation position.

Lin Xuan expressed understanding.

After all, although Lin Xuan's songs have been widely affirmed by netizens, he himself is an independent musician and has not really entered the mainstream music circle, Cai Fan is backed by an entertainment company, and he must have more resources than him, and Penguin Music also has in-depth cooperation with Cai Fan's entertainment company.

The two of them went online together, and the promotion resources must be biased towards Cai Fan.

Penguin Music is still very sincere, saying that if Lin Xuan adjusts the launch date a little later, he will definitely give him the best promotion resources, but Lin Xuan smiled and said no.

……

On August 14th, the single will be launched soon.

Lin Xuan posted on Weibo to promote his three songs.

Han Ling and Song Yan also reposted Lin Xuan's Weibo for the first time, and the two even wrote a long article to promote several of Lin Xuan's songs.

Li Bi and other independent musicians who have a good relationship with Lin Xuan also helped Lin Xuan promote on Weibo.

Then, Li Bi, Zhang Fei and others all called.

"What's wrong, Brother Bi?"

"Xiaolin, it's really you, others have postponed the launch date when they saw that they were going to fight Cai Fan, but you rolled up your sleeves and did it with him, you did it, man!"

"Hey, I just wanted to see if the myth of traffic is so indestructible. ”

"Actually, many people in the industry have long been unhappy with the situation that some people have no music, just for the sake of sales and interests, they don't dare to go head-to-head with those traffic artists with many fans, of course, they can't win hard. You're different, the popularity of your songs is there, and it's okay to touch them. ”

"Haha, it doesn't matter if it can win or not, I just want to show my attitude, many people think that the result is important, but for me, attitude is also very important, without attitude there is no work. ”

Indeed, musicians must first have an attitude and have their own aesthetic standards in order to lead the aesthetics of the audience. In fact, to put it bluntly, we are just a cook, and the chef is responsible for the dishes he makes, and he can't eat for customers. ”

……

"Brother Fei, why did you call me too. ”

"Don't you have a hard time with Cai Fan? This thing is awesome, of course buddy wants to call and talk to you. ”

"Those kings and queens have entered a creative low ebb, and other singers don't dare to have a hard time with Cai Fan, or the record company behind them doesn't allow a hard encounter with Cai Fan, so let me give it a try. ”

"Doing so might make you sell a little less. ”

"Hey, it's a lot, if you fail, it's a big deal to make two less money, if you win, you can prove that the work is more important than the character, and it will make me feel good to be able to prove it. Anyway, I can make a lot of money anyway, so I'd rather sacrifice a little profit to make myself happy. ”

"Hahaha, what you said is really to my appetite, that's right, it's more important to be happy. Of course, if you can win, you are not alone, all people who are serious about making music will feel happy, and it will prove that what you have been doing is meaningful. ”

……

Lin Xuan's Weibo was released not long ago, and it also aroused discussions among netizens.

Many netizens also paid attention to the music industry and commented.

", Boss Lin has a lot of character, Cai Fan is now the top traffic singer, with a lot of brain-dead fans, originally several singers who were also scheduled to release an album on the 15th, when they saw that Cai Fan was going to release the first single, they all said that there was a problem with the production of the album, and time went backwards, only Boss Lin was unwavering, this is to choose the positive gang. ”

"Boss Lin, it's just a man, I like it. ”

"Cut, the quality of Boss Lin's songs is there, why can't you just be positive, I support Boss Lin, after the album is launched at 12 o'clock tonight, I will buy it immediately. ”

"I'll buy it too, as for Cai Fan, what the hell is singing. ”

"Everyone has to buy Boss Lin's songs, this kind of music is worth our money. ”

“……”

Lin Xuan's original sentence "If you lose the freedom to criticize, then praise will be meaningless", this sentence was later widely used by netizens to scold Xiao Xianrou and their brainless fans.

People who pay attention to Lin Xuan have always liked him because of his works, and have a similar aesthetic orientation to Lin Xuan, so they naturally don't like the music of those traffic singers.

Therefore, in Lin Xuan's Weibo comment area, netizens were immediately excited about Lin Xuan's decision, and they shouted for Lin Xuan, saying that they would definitely buy his album.

However, after all, Lin Xuan is an independent musician who has not really entered the mainstream music circle, and there is no entertainment company behind him, and his battle is still far worse than Cai Fan.

Cai Fan released the promotional MV of his new song on Weibo, which quickly caused a huge sensation and became a hot search in minutes.

Many famous variety show hosts, many singers who have crossed paths with Cai Fan, have reposted Cai Fan's albums, and those stars who have close cooperation with Cai Fan's entertainment company are also very face-saving and applauded.

Cai Fan's Weibo also posted a congratulatory short video, in which there are many big stars in the entertainment industry, all facing the camera, congratulating Cai Fan's first single on the launch, and wishing him a big single sale.

In comparison, Lin Xuan's reaction was very shabby.

Lin Xuan sat in front of the computer and looked at all kinds of news about Cai Fan on Weibo.

He saw that several powerful singer-songwriters praised Cai Fan's singles, saying how much effort Cai Fan had made for this album, how long he had been preparing, inviting very famous producers abroad, using a very professional recording studio, and making very good productions.

Some music critics also praised Cai Fan's singles in terms of styling, concept, and dance.

Well...... The singer-songwriters and critics said everything else, but there was no mention of music.

Is...... It's humorous.

Lin Xuan looked at Weibo, and the whole person was amused.

The power of capital is really powerful, and it's really hard for these people, they really can't find a place to praise in music, so they can only find gaps in other aspects such as production to praise.

Lin Xuan lit a cigarette and sighed sincerely, it is difficult to make money these days, it is not easy for everyone, it is obviously a piece of, and he also said that the is delicious.

People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.

Under Cai Fan's Weibo, a group of fans frantically touted it.

"Wow, my Fan Fan is really amazing, this dance is really amazing, so handsome. ”

"Brother, it's so good, I'm going to blow up. ”

"Ahhhh

"My brother's album is online, I will definitely buy it, buy many copies, and give it to my friends. ”

"Come on, brother, it's finally time for the day to blossom and bear fruit, and I hope your efforts will be seen by the world. ”

"Brother, we will always be your strongest backing. ”

“……”

The news that Lin Xuan chose to confront Cai Fan naturally spread quickly on the Internet.

Many fans of Cai Fan came to Lin Xuan's Weibo comment area to comment.

"What the hell is this "Alive" singing? It's not fashionable at all, it's too earthy. ”

"I really can't appreciate these songs, so a fool will buy them. ”

"Dare to go head-to-head with our brother Fanfan, who gives you confidence. ”

“……”

Of course, fans who like Lin Xuan were not to be outdone, and scolded back, and the comment area was hot.

Fans on both sides come and go, and they are very happy, and many people eat melons silently.

Lin Xuan couldn't stand it anymore, so he updated Weibo and only sent one sentence, "Let time give us the answer." ”

Yes, Lin Xuan believes that good works have vitality.

Even if he loses with Cai Fan this time, it doesn't mean that his songs will lose, the works that can be passed down are good works, compared to Cai Fan's songs, he believes that his songs have more vitality.

……

Orange Sky Entertainment, Inc.

There was laughter in the room.

"This Lin Xuan is also really interesting, he is quite bold, and he dares to make a hair with Cai Fan. A woman with heavy makeup laughed.

The general manager of Orange Sky Entertainment said with a smile: "Actually, Lin Xuan's talent is obvious to all, and he is indeed a ruthless person! However, he chose the wrong object, and he wanted to fight Cai Fan hard, he was not qualified enough." ”

A middle-aged bald man said with a smile: "This Lin Xuan is young and gentle, but he has a lot of character, the outside world says that he is not interested in fame and fortune, and now it seems that this is really the case, and Cai Fan fights, his album sales will definitely be impacted, but he does not give in." ”

"Don't want fame and fortune? Hehe, some independent musicians are like this, they look like they are artists, they are high and proud, but they can't be eaten, money is the most important thing. ”

The general manager snorted disdainfully and said:

"We are an entertainment company, what can make money and do what, it takes time and effort to concentrate on making music, you look at those kings and queens, it takes several years to hold back an album, although the sales are very good, but they are very difficult to control, many arranged variety shows are not willing to be on it, and they don't make money if they have money.

It's still these little fresh meat girls, who are willing to go on variety shows and take on various activities, and fans are willing to pay for them, taken together, they earn more than those kings and queens, as for whether the work can be passed on, I don't care, those fans don't care, whatever. ”

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

The general manager snorted from his nostrils and said:

"I'm a businessman, I don't know music, but I know how to make money, those kings and queens are very statusy and compelling, but when it comes to making money for the company, these young people are still doing it. ”

……

The fight between Lin Xuan and Cai Fan has set off a wave in the music industry and aroused the attention of many people.

Time passed, and at 0:00 on the 15th, in everyone's expectation, the album of the two was finally launched as scheduled.
